Elle entend poser tous les problèmes généraux de l’analyse politique (nationalisme, ethnicité, néolibéralisme, réforme de l’État, fédéralisme, relations de genre, guerres civiles, médias, société civile, élections, etc.) : son originalité est de les “traiter” au sein de cet espace postcolonial et composite, présent sur quatre continents et dans de nombreuses diasporas. Paraissant depuis 1994, Lusotopie a publié des travaux d’auteurs de plus de trente nationalités, souvent originaires de pays du Sud et institué un espace de dialogue égalitaire grâce à son usage systématique de trois langues internationales (français, portugais et anglais). Lusotopie é uma revista comparatista internacional cujo objectivo é o desenvolvimento da investigação política sobre os espaços contemporâneos provenientes da história e da colonização portuguesas. Propõe-se abordar os problemas gerais da análise política (nacionalismo, etnicidade, neoliberalismo, reforma do Estado, federalismo, relações de género, guerras civis, media, eleições, etc.) : a originalidade da revista é a de tratar aqueles problemas no seio do espaço pós-colonial e plural, presente em quatro continentes e em numerosas diásporas. Sa indo desde 1994 Lusotopie publicou trabalhos de autores de mais de trinta nacionalidades, muitos dos quais naturais de países do Sul, e instituiu um espaço de diálogo egalitário graça s ao uso sistemático de três línguas internacionais (francês, inglês e português). Lusotopie is an international comparatist journal devoted to political analysis of contemporary spaces stemming from Portuguese history and colonization. It deals with general issues in political analysis (nationalism, ethnicity, neo-liberalism, State reform, federalism, gender, civil war, media, civil society, election, etc.): it provides an original approach within this heterogeneous postcolonial space on the four continents and in numerous Diasporas. Founded in 1994, Lusotopie has published a wide range of contributions from researchers of over 30 different nationalities, often from Southern countries. It has brought up an egalitarian dialogue space thanks to use of three international languages (French, Portuguese and English).

Ce qui l’intéressait était de poser les problèmes généraux de l’analyse sociale et politique dans le monde contemporain – la réforme de l’État, la démocratie politique, l’ethnicité, le néolibéralisme, les guerres

  • “Lost in Translation”: a Study of the History of Sri Lankan Literature
    Karunakaran / Lost in Translation “Lost in Translation”: A Study of the History of Sri Lankan Literature Shamila Karunakaran Abstract This paper provides an overview of the history of Sri Lankan literature from the ancient texts of the precolonial era to the English translations of postcolonial literature in the modern era. Sri Lanka’s book history is a cultural record of texts that contains “cultural heritage and incorporates everything that has survived” (Chodorow, 2006); however, Tamil language works are written with specifc words, ideas, and concepts that are unique to Sri Lankan culture and are “lost in translation” when conveyed in English. Keywords book history, translation iJournal - Journal Vol. 4 No. 1, Fall 2018 22 Karunakaran / Lost in Translation INTRODUCTION The phrase “lost in translation” refers to when the translation of a word or phrase does not convey its true or complete meaning due to various factors. This is a common problem when translating non-Western texts for North American and British readership, especially those written in non-Roman scripts. Literature and texts are tangible symbols, containing signifed cultural meaning, and they represent varying aspects of an existing international ethnic, social, or linguistic culture or group. Chodorow (2006) likens it to a cultural record of sorts, which he defnes as an object that “contains cultural heritage and incorporates everything that has survived” (pg. 373). In particular, those written in South Asian indigenous languages such as Tamil, Sanskrit, Urdu, Sinhalese are written with specifc words, ideas, and concepts that are unique to specifc culture[s] and cannot be properly conveyed in English translations.

URL : http:// journals.openedition.org/lusotopie/1164 Tous droits réservés THE PORTUGUESE IDENTITY OF THE AFRO-SRI LANKANS The Afro-Sri Lankans are an ethnic minority who have long been overlooked and have received little academic attention. They are a marginalised group, part of a culture which is undergoing rapid assimilation, and any information that we have at present about them may be lost if it is not recorded. There is as yet no adequate history of the Afro-Sri Lankans. The three waves of European colonisers (Portuguese, Dutch and British) that came to the shores of Sri Lanka brought Africans with them to this island in the Indian Ocean. This paper focuses on the largest Afro-Sri Lankan contemporary community. Since Sri Lanka regained its independence, the Afro-Sri Lankans have had to cope with the socio-political changes that have occurred in postcolonial Sri Lanka.

Portuguese identity in Malacca, Larantuka, and East Timor, for example, has always been associated with Catholicism. But in Batavia, the Portuguese-speaking population (the Mardijkers, slaves, and Burghers) was converted to Calvinism under Dutch colonization, forming the Protestant Portuguese community in Indonesia.

Trade , colonisation and slavery have been drivers of migration , interconnecting people of diverse ethnicity globally. Afro - Asian communities are both historic and contemporary a nd, w hilst Afro - diasporic communities in the Atlantic World are well recognised, the diasporas in Asia have only become visible in the last decade. Assimilation to the diversity of the Indian Ocean has cont ributed to this invisibility. With the loss of patronage due to changing political scenarios, African migrants have bec o me disenfranchised. The dynamics of their identity, shaped by strong cultural memories bring out their African roots. This paper argue s that diasporic consciousness of Afro - Asians is expressed through their strong cultural memories. As people with dual belongings, identifying with both the homeland and the hostland , Afro - Asians are able to reconcile their hybrid identities. With the mov ement of Afro - Asians from the peripheries their subaltern voices are beginning to be heard. T heir eclipsed histories and lost narratives are challeng ing the Atlantic model of African migration .

  • The Cases of Guinea-Bissau and Sri Lanka
    Chapter 2 Luso-Creole Culture and Identity Compared Th e Cases of Guinea-Bissau and Sri Lanka Christoph Kohl Introduction Th e Upper Guinea Coast is a special case, where processes of creolization in con- nection to Portugal’s expansion are concerned. Colonial ideology used to depict Guinea-Bissau as the ‘fi rst Portuguese possession’, ‘cradle’ (Reis Torgal 2005: 64), and ‘dawn’ (Governo da Guiné 1952) of the Portuguese empire. Th e Portuguese called at the Upper Guinea Coast on their way to Asia and Brazil. Portuguese culture, having ‘disembarked’ there fi rst, has been appropriated, integrated and transformed by local populations there since the late fi fteenth century. Hence, the Upper Guinea Coast was the fi rst region where creolization occurred in con- nection to (Portuguese) colonialism (Vale de Almeida 2007). Processes of cultural and particularly linguistic creolization in Africa and Asia have been the subject of several ‘mono-sited’ studies. However, very few (e.g. Knörr 2008, 2010) in- volve a comparative look at such processes and their social impact. Generally speaking, fi ndings concerning linguistic connections are linked to connections beyond language – where people speak, they interact (and vice versa); and where they interact, new culture and new identifi cations are likely to emerge. Research has, however, led to a number of studies on creole groups and culture, which I term ‘Luso-Creole’. Th is notion alludes to a network of ‘continued identities’ and cultural representations that started emerging during the Portuguese expansion that began in the fi fteenth century and have since acquired specifi c complexities and dynamics (Pina Cabral 2010).

  • Mcgilvray 1982 Dutch Burghers CSSH
    Comparative Studies in Society and History 24 (2): 235-263 (April 1982) Dutch Burghers and Portuguese Mechanics: Eurasian Ethnicity in Sri Lanka DENNIS B. McGILVRAY University of Colorado, Boulder I. PROLOGUE Historians and anthropologists in Sri Lanka have tended to migrate in opposite directions, but away from the multiethnic confusion of the port cities. Typically, the heterogeneous, semi-Westernized, postcolonial urban society of Colombo and the larger towns has been only a transit point on intellectual journeys outbound to European archives or inbound to “traditional culture.” This was certainly my viewpoint as I arrived “inbound” in Sri Lanka for my first anthropological fieldwork. I took only passing notice of the clerks of mixed European and Sri Lankan descent who sold me stationery supplies at Cargill's and mosquito nets at Carvalho's. These people are given the official designation of Burghers in the government census: they are the racially mixed descendants of the Portuguese, Dutch, and British personnel who occupied the island during four and a half centuries of colonial rule. When I eventually arrived in Akkaraipattu, a predominantly Hindu and Muslim town on the east coast of the island, my indifference to Westernized elements became a calculated aversion, based on a desire to appear receptive to the indigenous culture. In particular, I decided to steer clear of the local Roman Catholics, many of whom were Burghers, dreading that I might become identified with the diocesan hierarchy, partially staffed by American Jesuits from New Orleans. Fortunately, I later met the parish priest, a Tamil named Father Raymond Arasaratnam, who was a whiz at electric circuitry and who also had considerable experience as an exorcist.
